Help needed dating kimono

Hi,

This is the first kimono I find, and I would like to date it right. I have my idea but would like to know better.
Can somebody help with it?

It doesn't have any labels, and probably seems handsewn and probably cotton (not light fabric).

I have been reading about yukatas and kimonos, and it seems to have characteristics of both.

Anyway, most important would be finding which era it belongs to.

Thank you

Kimono are notoriously difficult to date, as the styles remain constant. This looks more like a yukata to me because it is light-weight and largely unlined. It looks like you are displaying it inside out as that half-lining would be on the interior of the garment. In fact, I am curious about that half-lining out of self fabric, which is not like any kimono I have ever seen. Is there a shoulder seam or are the front and back one continuous piece?
